Things are moving along here in Halifax, Nova Scotia. I am going down
this route, to prove that this can be done, by myself. Most people on
the sites probably don't know who I am. It would be nice if local
people would atleast verify my existence, that I am active as a
hobbyist in this area, & not some scam artist. Thanks

I've known John since I moved to Halifax two years ago. Good guy and as
honest as the day is long.
I'll suport his efforts as much as I can and I wish him all the best with
this experiment.
It appears that John's intention is to create a conversion kit that will
rebadge some less popular titles into more desireable games. He will need
some parts to tinker with. This may be your chance to design your own
playfield toy and see it implemented onto a machine.
Good luck John. I'm hoping he does a MechWarrior theme myself..

"...This may be your chance to design your own playfield toy and see it

I always thought it would be cool to have a central ball lock toy that was
like a dial on a big safe. You'd get balls to lock into it and when enough
were in (I was thinking 6), that would be like the tumblers in a lock and
"enable" the mechanism to rotate and disengage the lock while at the same
time sending all the balls out onto the playfield for a big multiball.

When I saw a Millionaire machine I thought, "oh, someone did it already,"
but on further examination I realized it was just a roulette wheel.

I'll be in touch, things have been a bit hectic lately with getting our
place prepared for sale / finding a house. I got your e-mail replies ok!

Best of luck with this experiment!

Again, you'd be better of calling it a conversion kit which is what they
will be, prototype means something else.
